Download or read book The Color of Money written by Mehrsa Baradaran and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2017-09-14 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Read this book. It explains so much about the moment...Beautiful, heartbreaking work.” —Ta-Nehisi Coates “A deep accounting of how America got to a point where a median white family has 13 times more wealth than the median black family.” —The Atlantic “Extraordinary...Baradaran focuses on a part of the American story that’s often ignored: the way African Americans were locked out of the financial engines that create wealth in America.” —Ezra Klein When the Emancipation Proclamation was signed in 1863, the black community owned less than 1 percent of the total wealth in America. More than 150 years later, that number has barely budged. The Color of Money seeks to explain the stubborn persistence of this racial wealth gap by focusing on the generators of wealth in the black community: black banks. With the civil rights movement in full swing, President Nixon promoted “black capitalism,” a plan to support black banks and minority-owned businesses. But the catch-22 of black banking is that the very institutions needed to help communities escape the deep poverty caused by discrimination and segregation inevitably became victims of that same poverty. In this timely and eye-opening account, Baradaran challenges the long-standing belief that black communities could ever really hope to accumulate wealth in a segregated economy. “Black capitalism has not improved the economic lives of black people, and Baradaran deftly explains the reasons why.” —Los Angeles Review of Books “A must read for anyone interested in closing America’s racial wealth gap.” —Black Perspectives

Download or read book Hustling The Art of Black Financial Survival written by Rufus Shaw Jr and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-01-14 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ufus Shaw's Book, " Hustling: The Art of Black financial Survival," is a simple, common sense guide on how black business people can survive and even prosper if they know what they are doing. Show, whose first book was "How to be Rich nigger," has two degrees from Southern Methodist University in Dallas. He said his street sense was learned in the predominantly black section of South Dallas. Using Humor, poetry and a smattering of profanity, Shaw avoids complicated economic formulas. He starts off by defining hustling: .."making something positive happen under difficult circumstances by using a combination of common sense, understanding of human nature, daring and hard work." In his straight forward style, Shaw Discusses such topics as understanding man from a street perspective, business from that same perspective, the educated fool, going broke and investments. The book is quick and easy reading. Shaw Breaks no new ground as he drops numerous jewels on his readers: " Without some form of education you're lost. Racism will you down, but ignorance will knock you out!" or "When money is in hand, pay your bills on time, when money is short, pay in 60 days, when money is shortest, pay something, but never pay nothing." or: "If you're sued, it is not the end of the world. Millions of people have been sued and have judgments pending..but they live everyday, normal lives. There's no "X" marked on their forehead.. Sure, it'll mess up your credit. The minute the bill collectors start calling, your credit was "Screwed.'" Shaw also devotes a chapter on crime and how it can be a money maker, but not without risks, for black people. There even is a subheading entitled, "Prison University." He does not preach, but he does touch many bases in a fact filled and entertaining 103 page book. Shaw's greatest success in this to me is pulling together a lot of basic wisdom and putting it down in black and white.
